Anteprima della tesi: Dorian Gray Critique

Oscar Wilde is widely regarded as one of the most discussed writers of all time. He is famous for his deep texts and smart use of his wit and quotes in discussing various topics. In his only ever published novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, he discuss various different topics, among them being the pursuit of pleasure in this life, but not just any type of pleasure, hedonistic pleasure to be more precise.

The portrait was first seen as something that could have a positive effect on him, but as time went by, he became consumed by his evil ways and ended up destroying everything he ever knew.
